I can't speak for everybody, but I don't see any problems here. I
assume that MidityZ is a completely separate program, which does not share
any code, nor call any any libraries that are part of timidity. I assume
that it simply executes the TiMidity++ executable with appropriate flags.
The name is suffiently different from TiMidity++ so as not to confuse
anybody. I can't see how TiMidity++ can exert any copyright or
trademark issues on to a completely independent front end. More GUI front
ends equals more choice for the user, which is a good thing. Sounds good
to me. Go for it!

Hello, Timidity++ developers !
I am a huge fan of your program, I use it every day as my main midi player.
I started a project for university what relyes on Timidity++, a GUI frontend
writen in Java, I would like to call it MidityZ if i don't break your
copyright.
I would apreciate if I will receive a reply as soon as posible with a
responce.
Seriously,
"DataSmith"
P.S.
I apologize for my bad english.
